A mum was horrified when her three-year-old daughter fell in love with a creepy Halloween doll - and she takes it everywhere with her. Little Olivia Crittenden, three, may look innocent but has a love of all things horror - and her newest toy has left even her mother concerned. Mum Sarah Crittenden, 29, took her youngest child to ASDA on October 12 and promised to buy her a toy of her choice ahead of Halloween. To her horror, they ended up going home with a creepy singing Halloween doll after little Olivia, who "isn't scared of anything" fell in love with it. The tot has barely let the doll, which rocks and sings a spooky song, out of her sight - after naming it "Baby" and declaring that she "loves her". Horrified mum Sarah, from Rochester, Kent, said: "She walked in the shop and as soon as I told her to go and pick a toy, I heard this creepy nursery rhyme. "When I turned around, Olivia was holding it and staring at me with this massive grin! "I made her buy a Barbie instead but she wouldn't stop talking about it when we got home - in the end I went back and bought it. "She told me 'Mummy, her name is Baby, and I love her.' "Now Baby sits proudly with her other teddies but it's her favourite and she takes it everywhere." Sarah said little Olivia is fearless and obsessed with Halloween - and has no fears when it comes to spooky things. She joked that Olivia is the kind of child who would stand in the doorway and watch you sleep at night. She said: "She's just that creepy child - she likes her Barbies when their arms and legs have popped out. "Now I'm thinking she's going to be a psychopath when she's older. "We call her the little devil!"
